I don't know why it's named Space Fightep. Yes, with a P. It doesn't look like a space vehicle at all, maybe a World War I/II fighter plane? Still, can't say it doesn't look great.

Lepin, again with the more-than-one-announcement-per-day routine.. Amazing.

Know where this set came from? Or if maybe it's even an original? Share your thoughts below and don't forget to like us on Facebook!

UPDATE: Apparently this one is a MOC. Also known as F-26 Tempest. Details can be found here! Let's give its designer John Hall some credit. From a positive perspective, it's such a great design that Lepin put in that much effort to get it released!

I can't find Lepin's source for this design. Is it Lego? Or somewhere else? Still though, this is quite an interesting set. I wonder if the water in the picture is just for effects or if it's really designed for moving through water.. Also it's battery powered! Lepin's really pushing for battery powered sets these days.

On a side note, I'm really amazed at the number of releases Lepin has.. From Lego Batman Movie to Star Wars to Technic sets and to other Lego stuff.. and at such a fast pace.. I mean, compare that to Sheng Yuan or Decool or other brands who have maybe weeks or months of breaks until they start releasing new sets.. I just hope their pricing gets better, especially since I heard they're overpriced in Ali right now.

What an intersting set. Even comes with a light up brick? And 3 in 1? Though I can't really praise Lepin for those since those are Lego's designs. So if you want to see what's in this set, check out the official Lego one. This set is named 31062 Robo Explorer! I think it's a new Lego set actually.

Yeah, this is a copy of an original Lego set from maybe 2010? Anyway, details about the official Lego set can be found here.

What you see is what you get I guess, as is the case for most, if not all, Lepin sets. Just look at Lego's site if you wanna see the features and what's included. I also heard Lepin's improving on minifig quality so that's a good thing to take note of. (Correct me if I'm wrong though.)

The vibe I'm getting from this brand is that they're bootlegs of Lepin.. Maybe because of the logo with the two Chinese characters just like Lepin's new logo..

I'll try to update you guys asap when I see IRL YILE reviews. But for now, this heads up is for all you out there. Personally though, I'd be cautious and not spend too much on this new brand, but I'm all for trying them out. Maybe they're actually good.

Interested to see how that remote control and power function will work.

Not much to say except that this is a copy of Lego's Monster Dino set. Knowing Lepin, if you wanna know more about this product, just google Lego's copy because Lepin will most likely almost 100% copy it!

Are you hesitant because of that power function? Or excited? Share your thoughts below and don't forget to like us on Facebook!

It's actually basically the same as XINH's last release, except this one only has 6 in the set compared to XINH's 8.

This one doesn't have Spider-Boy [who is actually a random and weird addition ot XINH's set] and Red Hulk Bigfig.

Personally, I wouldn't get these YET, because I'm waiting for them in their sets, like Coulson's car and Justin Hammer's mech from Sheng Yuan. But if it takes them too long, I'll be forced to pick these ones up, or wait for Lepin maybe.

Maybe the better thing to do is pick up these ones then go to XINH and pick up Spider-Boy and Red Hulk because, even though XINH's had some nice releases, POGO has had more good times than bad compared to XINH!

XINH or this? Or wait for main sets? Share your thoughts below and don't forget to like us on Facebook!

I honestly don't know them all, well I don't know any of them from the bottom row.. On top it's Mr. Freeze, Batgirl, Comissioner Gordon(?), Alfred. Share them below if you know who the bottom characters are!

Will you be picking these up? Who are the characters here? Are they worth it even though Lepin/Lele has released build sets including some of them? Share your thoughts below and don't forget to like us on Facebook!

Thanks to Abigail, a DTB Facebook follower for the heads up on this set!

We'll just have to wait and see for some reviews if these'll be just as good as they are in the pictures! Still, based on Lepin's past, even if you're just into the parts and not the set, I think this set will be very much worth it [but still depends on the pricing of course haha].

In the end though, I'd still say get the Lepin ones seen over here instead! [Or the POGO/XINH ones for the single minifigs.] Though I guess it won't hurt to try and give Lele a chance, especially for your least favorite from that collection of Lego Batman Movie sets. Maybe they've improved!

Must have for any Beatles fan. Honestly thought it'd be bigger but I think this size is adequate if not perfect for such a set!

Also, on a side note, I'm quite surprised Lepin used the name "The Beatles" and didn't change it. It's weird because all the other names are changed from their other products, most recently "The Big Explosion" from "The Big Bang Theory".
